good news looking forward to seeing the new carbon body !!! the finish is supposed to be brill !!!

I understand the M600 @ the show will be black with red wheels, also with hand stitched black leather seats. The hand stitching is red.

The steering wheel is said to be a work of art.

Yes I've heard from people who have seen the car at the factory, the build quality is excellent.

It will be interesting to see how well the McLaren MP4 12C (also there) stacks up to it.

going back to build quality at the cost of the car you would expect it to be exellent will be good to se though

the Maclaren looks nice but its paddle shift only and i,m sorry but i want a gearlever so i can make my own decisions about when to change gear and don,t want to have to look at the dash or count my gearshifts !!!!!

If you like the front of a R8 and the back of an NSX. Was high up on the list and pulled the order. The car just lacks passion in my eyes. I'm sure it'll be epically fast but 200K get's you a lot of toy elsewhere even these days...

The M600 is going to be on the McGard's stand (they make wheel nuts). I think the stand no is 8640, though I'm not sure what hall its in.
The blue M600 is also going to be there though I'm not sure on which stand.

i was not wowed by it at the unveiling, but when you get up close the detail blows you away

the car is all about function over form - nothing is there unless it needs to be or adds to the performance of the car. The Design is supposed to be timeless and i think it probably will look ok in 10 years time. Look at the Mclaren F1, fresh as a dasiy even years later
